the blow off by proxy

I broke up with a guy in 4th grade after we'd been dating for exactly 48 hours. I decided to dump him, because he was mean to my friends during a game of kick ball. I didn't put up with any bull shit back then.

Anyway, this was in 1989 and we didn't have email, pagers, cell phones, or text messages, so I opted for the next best way to blow him off without having to do it in person or talk to his mom when i called his house. I told his friends to tell him for me. It was totally a blow off by proxy. Now, I wonder if everytime he blows off a girl, it's really just a subconsious way of exacting revenge on little 4th grade me.

about the blow off

We've all been blown off, we've all blown someone off. Share your story: the blow off texts, emails, voice mail messages you've either sent or received to mark the end of a relationship. And if the blow off consisted of a disappearing act, post a missing person's report. Or just read stories about break ups in general.
